Silent Seas - The Fish Race to the Bottom
"Isabella Lovin writes with great passion and clarity about the crisis facing global fish stocks. Exposing the weak short termism of governments, and the persistent failure of the EU fisheries policy to act on the clear science, her warning is unequivocal: act soon or lose vast sections of this vital source of food forever. But it's not all gloom and doom. She is clear that this is a solvable problem - and that until governments legislate more responsibly, consumer action is the best means for bringing about change. A compelling book, that all those who care about the future of our oceans will want to read." HUGH FERNLEY-WHITTINGSTALL, HUGH'S FISH FIGHT "Who would have thought that Sweden, o...

Captured by My True Alpha After Rejection
"O... Oliver is our mate?" I asked in absolute awe. "You must think I'm stupid, Alpha Hamilton. You think I'll stoop so low to be mated with a stupid half-breed of no origin!" Just then, he turned his angry gaze towards me. What I saw in those eyes was clearly hate and disgust. He must despise me that much. But why? "I, Oliver Thorn, reject you, Olivia, as my mate!" This surprised and confused me. I wasn't expecting help from anyone. Just then, I saw no one but Ethan Montgomery storm into the hall with a group of soldiers behind him. "Charge!" Ethan yelled, and immediately attacked Oliver's men. As Ethan passed by me, he suddenly paused and took his gaze towards me, saying, "We meet again." ...

Language, Cognition, and Emotion in Keats's Poetry
Language, Cognition, and Emotion in Keats’s Poetry applies an innovative cognitive linguistic approach to the poetry of John Keats, the first of its kind to employ a cognitive-based framework to explore the expression and articulation of emotion in his work. Brannon adopts an embodied perspective to emotion, rooted in cognitive linguistics, cognitive grammar, and cognitive poetics but also works from figurative language and stylistics, in examining a selection of Keats’s poems. This approach allows for a close interrogation of the texts themselves but also the languages that compose them, comprising lexical and grammatical elements, which, when taken together, bring out the emotional saliency of Keatsian poetry. While revealing fresh insights into the work of John Keats, the book also sheds further light on the importance of cognitive approaches to poetic and grammatical analyses and how both language and the body can serve as forms of communication through which metaphors can be expressed and contextualized. This volume will appeal to students and scholars interested in cognitive linguistics, figurative language, emotion studies, cognitive science, and Anglophone poetry.
Male Envy
Defining male envy as "the hostility males feel for other males," the author explores how envy, while a taboo topic in everyday life, has (from the Romantic period onward) been given a thorough treatment by literature and looks at what that treatment reveals about the role of envy in competition, warfare, and civilization. Discussing works ranging from Ivanhoe to The Shining he looks at envy as a coded subtext inherent in a vast range of human conflict. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Mrs Beeton and Mrs Marshall
The name Mrs Beeton has endured for well over a century, synonymous with all things reassuringly culinary, while her contemporary Agnes Bertha Marshall remains somewhat of an enigma. Both Isabella Beeton and Agnes Bertha Marshall lived within a short distance of each other in Pinner, worked in London, wrote about, and shared a passion for food, all just a couple of decades apart. While Isabella Beeton compiled one successful book of collected recipes, Agnes built a cookery empire, including a training school, the development of innovative kitchen equipment, a range of cooking ingredients, an employment agency and a successful weekly journal, as well as writing three incredibly popular recipe books. Mrs Beeton and Mrs Marshall: A Tale Of Two Victorian Cooks intrudes on the private lives of both these women, whose careers eclipsed two very different halves of the Victorian era. While there are similarities between the two, their narratives explore class and background, highlight the social and economic contrasts of the nineteenth century, the ascension of the cookery industry in general and the burgeoning power of suffragism.
Imagination Transformed
From the mortal maidens of 1817 to the omnipotent goddesses of 1819, Keats uses successive female characters as symbols portraying the salvation and destruction, the passion and fear that the imagination elicits. Karla Alwes traces the change in these female figures—multidimensional and mysteriously protean—and shows that they do more than comprise a symbol of the female as a romantic lover. They are the gauge of Keats’s search for identity. As Keats’s poetry changes with experience, from celebration to denial of the earth, the females change from meek to threatening to a final maternal and conciliatory figure. Keats consistently maintained a strict dichotomy between the flesh-and-bl...
